We study existence, multiplicity and qualitative properties of entire solutions for a noncompact problem related to p-biharmonic type equations with weights. More precisely, we deal with the following family of equations $$ \Delta_{p}^2 u =…

We present a new Fortran library to evaluate all harmonic polylogarithms up to weight four numerically for any complex argument. The algorithm is based on a reduction of harmonic polylogarithms up to weight four to a minimal set of basis…

We introduce the class of \emph{Log-Noetherian} (LN) functions. These are holomorphic solutions to algebraic differential equations (in several variables) with logarithmic singularities. We prove an upper bound on the number of solutions…

Sitting at the top level of the Askey-scheme, Wilson polynomials are regarded as the most general hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials. Instead of a differential equation, they satisfy a second order Sturm-Liouville type difference…

Linearly independent Dirichlet L-functions satisfying the same Riemann-type of functional equation have been supposed for long time to possess off critical line non trivial zeros. We are taking a closer look into this problem and into its…

This is a summary for the authors' article "The formal KZ equation on the moduli space ${\mathcal M}_{0,5}$ and the harmonic product of multiple zeta values" (prerint (2009) arXiv:0910.0718), including a new result on the five term relation…

All real solutions of the Lane-Emden equation for n = 5 are obtained in terms of Jacobian and Weierstrass elliptic functions. A new family of solutions is found. It is expressed by remarkably simple formulae involving Jacobian elliptic…

We calculate 3-loop master integrals for heavy quark correlators and the 3-loop QCD corrections to the $\rho$-parameter. They obey non-factorizing differential equations of second order with more than three singularities, which cannot be…

We classify all the \emph{$\Delta$-}coherent pairs of measures of the second kind on the real line. We obtain $5$ cases, corresponding to all the families of discrete semiclassical orthogonal polynomials of class $s\leq1.$

By exploring the relations among functional equations, harmonic analysis and representation theory, we give a unified and very accessible approach to solve three important functional equations -- the d'Alembert equation, the Wilson…

We give new explicit formulas for Grassmannian and Aomoto polylogarithms in terms of iterated integrals, for arbitrary weight. We also explicitly reduce the Grassmannian polylogarithm in weight 4 and in weight 5 each to depth 2.…

We set the scene with known values and functional relations for dilogarithms, trilogarithms and polylogarithms of various orders, along with more recent Euler sum values and multidimensional computations paying homage to the three late…

We show that it is possible, in opposition to a previous conjecture, to derive a Nielsen identity for the effective action in the case of the generalized $R_\xi $-gauge, where the gauge function explicitly depends on the gauge parameter…

We give a new proof of the dilogarithm identities, associated to the (2,2n+1) minimal models of the Virasoro algebra.

For general N=5 and N=6 superconformal field theories in three dimensions, we compute the three-point correlation functions of the supercurrent multiplets. In each case, N=5 and N=6, the functional form of this correlator is uniquely fixed…

In a previous article, we define "connectivity weights" to be functions with these two properties: 1) They solve the three conformal Ward identities of conformal field theory (CFT) and a system of $2N$ null-state differential equations…

We review a method for the algebraic treatment of a family of functions which contains the multiple polylogarithms, with applications to the symbolic calculation of Feynman integrals.

It's well known that multiple polylogarithms give rise to good unipotent variations of mixed Hodge-Tate structures. In this paper we shall {\em explicitly} determine these structures related to multiple logarithms and some other multiple…

In this paper, we give explicit evaluation for some integrals involving polylogarithm functions of types $\int_{0}^{x}t^{m} Li_{p}(t)\mathrm{d}t$ and $\int_{0}^{x}\log^{m}(t) Li_{p}(t)\mathrm{d}t$. Some more integrals involving the…

In the planar N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, the conformal symmetry constrains multi-loop n-edged Wilson loops to be given in terms of the one-loop n-edged Wilson loop, augmented, for n greater than 6, by a function of conformally…
